Do you have any way of measuring the angle?
I don't think many here have a way to measure the tang lock stop angle. I know I just eyeball that stuff with mods. Assemble, test, file, adjust, assemble, test, etc, etc.

Are you modifying a blade to fit a Wave or Signal?

I swap the OHO tools on the wave and signal before. They are interchangeable.

If that is the case, then eyeball estimation also works, at least worked for me (when modding a Wave). I took out the Wave's tool on the tool-to-be-grinded and outlined with a thin marker. Dremel and files did the rest. When I put the new tool in, the locking action was pretty good, I expected wobble etc, though there was none.
